...all i really want is simplification- serenity and world domination via art. and a raygun. and uhh...stuff.

art-primate for life!! i'm a comic book illustrator and fine artist/filmmaker/animator/multimedia designer/pirate with a desire to have fun and explore the world- not slow down.

recently considering learning to tatoo.

I'm a great cook and talker. More of a Coffee house type - Not a club kinda guy. As an artist, I try to take pride in what I do well and forget the rest...Avid art/film fan- Love xperimental/highbrow while gobbling up the guilty pleasures of underground and lowbrow. Yeah, that's right I'm one crazy Sicilian/Puerto Rican-artist-Geek! I really appreciate: HR Giger, Louis Bunuel, comics, Garlic, Bollywood films, underground artists of all types, TAKASHI MIIKE films, lounge music, erotica, sensuality, sexuality, The old Avengers T.V. show, LOTR, the marx bros... But now all i really want is simplification- serenity and world domination via art.HEY CLICK ON THIS OVER HERE....

Feel free to turn this off. there's a pause button on the thing somewhere...
